Creating an online shooping site
I've been using Dreamweaver for a few years now to develop
html/css sites, and have just been asked to create an online
shopping site for a small company. I note that many magazines
recommend Actinic as a complete solution, but I would be interested
to know if there is an easy way to develop the site and its various
elements in Dreamweaver?
My understanding is that Actinic (and, I presume, other
shopping site development apps) handles the creation and deployment
of much of the server-side technology, and as I want to get this
right first time, I would be interested to hear the group's
Depends also on what you mean by “small company”.
I have developed several small company sites just using
Paypal
No matter what application you use, even your own, you will
need a credit card processing company to handle your transactions
and you DO NOT want to tackle that alone.
If the company has fewer than say 50 products, Paypal works
great. I takes some maintenance on someone’s part for price
changes etc. but is robust enough for most things and is free to
use (except for pretty small transaction fees)
If you have many more products than that, or a lot of options
(sizes, colors, etc.) you’ll need a commercial product.
I’ve never used Actinic so I can’t vouch for it
specifically. I’ve developed a site with over 19,000 parts in
several categories using Comersus and I’m in the process of
doing one with NetPoint. Yes, they pretty much have all of the
active parts worked out and you are lots of money ahead to buy a
good product rather than try and do it yourself.
The benefits to most products like these is the ability to
drive them with databases. When an inventory item is changed in the
company database, Comersus and Netpoint will modify the web page in
real time. So if there are 5 items in stock and somebody buys one,
the next shopper sees 4 items in stock. Or if you change a price or
description, the web page changes immediately. With thousands of
items this is a mandatory feature.

Mysteriously added text downloading to Acrobat Create PDF Online
Working on Acrobat.com's create an online pdf web page I
downloaded a Word Document from my pc to Acrobat.com and opened the
Word document (on Acrobat's web site) to find the document
different than the original Word document on my pc.
The Word document (as well as the pdf conversion displayed
next to it) on the Acrobat.com web page mysteriously had an added
line of text showing a previously unknown date (January 9, 2006)
inserted before the body of the original text but under the
original page header. The font also looked slightly different
throughout the body and header of the document and the document
itself was extended to 3 pages long instead of 2. In the conversion
the now added 3rd page also mysteriously included the standard
header and footer and renumbered the first two pages to include
this new 3rd page (page x of 3) in the footer.. When I went back to
the original Word document on my pc nothing was added or changed.
I downloaded another Word document with a different page
header from the same pc to the Acrobat webpage and while that
document looks graphically slightly different there was no text
added.
It seems that there must be some sort of embedded legacy date
code or script at the beginning of the Word document that while not
visible in either the reveal codes side pane, or showing up in any
way when working or printing the document in Word is somehow
revealed in the text of the document when downloaded to the Acrobat
site even before its converted to a pdf file.
How can I manage this?I am using Windows XP Professional O/S and Firefox as my
browser. I get that the font options will change the file as opened
at Acrobat that may change the layout,
but,....
how do you explain the mysterious extra date 'string' that
appeared at the start of the word document as it showed up at
Acrobat's website?
Since this is standard out of the box Word and included fonts
(garamond 12) why does this do this. -
We want to create an online contract form with different options which will determine different prices as they make their choices. We will also require a legally binding e-signature. Is Acrobat the best product or even an option for this?
You need to use form fields. See the Acrobat help section and this site: https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/
However, that last part (receiving an automatic response when a form is submitted) has nothing to do with Acrobat, or even with the PDF file. This is something you'll need to set up on your web (or email) server. -
I have Dreamweaver CS4. . . is it possible to use dreamweaver to create
and online poll?
I know NOTHING about programming beyond html.
If not, do you know of any online tutorials where I can learn how to make an online poll? Not sure what language is used for polls but I would prefer to stay away from ASP since I have heard it is a dying breed.
Thank you.Depends on how sophisticated you need your poll or survey to be.
Most blogging wares (WordPress, Blogger, Joomla, Drupal, etc...) have drop-in poll widgets you can use.
If you're on Windows, Oven Fresh Easy Poll Maker creates on-line polls in minutes without writing any code.

Need to create a online pdf form filler
hi, not quite sure how to achieve this or which product to use.
im trying to create an online web form for users to fill out and print (but to prohibit them from saving to their pc).
i need to embed it somehow on a webpage and not as a link, something similar to this service:
https://www.pdffiller.com/edit.php?id=475533
thanks
BoazHi Bill, thanks for your reply,
actually the site uses flash to present the form for filling. i tried building such a form using flash but its too complicated, im sure there is a much easier way.
say i create a editable form using Acrobat Pro, how would i go about embedding it into the webpage ? and allowing for it to be printed but not saved (the flash solution wrapps the form in a flash file therefor not allowing for a user to save it as a PDF file.
is there a way to do this ?
(im not quite sure why the link i sent is password protected, can't you access it ? http://www.pdffiller.com/index.php - take alook at their service)
here is another example of how i would like it to look

How can I create a Online Store using Muse? (with not Business Catalyst)
How can I create a Online Store using Muse with not Business Catalyst for example three services
_ttps://orders.self-pub.net/checkout.php?m=fastcheckout
_ww.self-pub.net/services/covers.htmlHi,
Unfortunately there is no option stand alone in Muse to create an online store. However if any hosting plan uses CMS feature like Business Catalyst and ecommerce using modules and tags, you can use the same proceedure as for Business Catalyst and integrate that system and host the Muse site on their platform and that would work.
There is other thing that you can try is, Insert HTML codes to link the pages and some contents in Muse to your desired CMS. What you can also do is after you create the site in Muse, you can export the Muse site and get the layout and design of your site and copy paste the codes for pages with some HTML and coding skills to integrate with your desired hosting.
Hope this helps.

How can I create a Online Store using Muse?
How can I create a Online Store using Muse?
I have been looking around for solutions but I can't find one.
I was just hoping that someone else might have known of a way.
Thanks!Since you can access the Alpha File Manager it means the option to "Enable online content editing (incompatible with Muse)" is ticked up under your profile details. With this enabled you can create Web Forms under Site Manager. Once you create the contact form open the Alpha File Manager (AFM), select the page where you want to insert this and choose the Web Forms from the right hand column. On the pop-up window select the web form to insert and click Insert.
Regarding the upgrade, as long as the site is in trial mode you can choose any plan for the site, see my answer #7. Create a new trial site, choose the link to the new trial site created from PP and publish your site there for testing purposes so you will have ecommerce included and available for you to try out.
If things go well you can request an upgrade to your current site to have the ecommerce included (the only situation in which this upgrade won't be available is when the site is published on one of the 5 sites received with the CCM subscription, they are webBasics and cannot be upgraded: http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/publish-anywhere.html under "Publish websites" section, and the option will be to create the site from partner portal and publish the content from Muse)
At this moment indeed there's little documentation on how to integrate the two but this is because Muse is just not ready to take advantage of BC capabilities. It was never intended for CMS features of BC to be available in version 1 of Muse. This has already been mentioned a few times (one relevant example: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4355214#4355214#4355214)

Create a public access site to see the documents which are created by administrator
Hi ,
I am new to the sharepoint. I would like to create a public facing sharepoint 2013 site .
Main requirement is Administrator must login to site and create a documents in library. Those documents must visible to everyone. So that site must be public facing.
Please let me know step by step how to resolve it as I am new to this.
Regards,
RajHi,
From your description, my understanding is that you want to let all users have permission to access a document.
The first method you could create a public facing site with method below:
1.
You should change settings in CA and your site. You could refer to this article:
http://blog.cloudshare.com/2012/10/15/how-to-enable-anonymous-access-to-a-sharepoint-2013-site/.This is a video for you:
How to make your SharePoint 2013 site a public facing website?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnOmtE1x8JM
2.
Add your document into the home page: Click gear icon -> edit page -> INSERT tab in the Ribbon -> Web Part -> select your document -> Save.
The second method you could accomplish your requirement via manage your document permission:
1.
Enter your document library.
2.
Click Library Setting in the Ribbon.
3.
Click
Permissions for this document library under Permissions And Management section.
4.
Click Stop Inheriting Permissions in the Ribbon.
5.
Click Grant Permissions in the Ribbon.
6.
Enter everyone and choose view only as the screenshot below.
7.
Then users can access this document library via its URL(in my case it is:
http://sp/sites/sharepoint2013/Shared%20Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx).

3. Choose the Extraction from view section and enter you table name.
4. Save it.

How do I create an online PDF form that can be filled out by recipient?
I have Create PDF Online and am wondering how I go about creating a document that can be filled out by a recipient. This would be regarding a questionaire type form where I would ask questions and the recipient fills in the answers. I know I have received these in the past from other people, but do not know how to do this myself. I don't know if this is even possible with CREATE PDF ONLINE or if I need to purchase a special Adobe software package in order to do this.
Thank you in advance for any information that any of you can give me.i'm afraid i can't help you. i've never tried to create a document that can
be filled out. hopefully, someone else can help you. -
One of my online banking sites runs contests to win cash from time to time to encourage use of the site. Prior to a recent upgrade of Firefox, I had no problem opening the necessary pages. I am now being told that those particular sites are being blocked by my Firewall. The area in question is basically a "flag" you click on to guess which of three "umbrellas" you want to open for a chance to win money. These flags are located in various parts of the online banking site; i.e., make a payment, transfers, summary, etc.
I can only guess because I've never seen such a message...
Does it help if you completely turn off Firefox's pop-up window blocker?
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Content > ''uncheck'' Block pop-up windows
You might want to check with the bank's tech support in case they've run into this before. -
